for the spraying of liquids, the spraying chamber consists of a nozzle which is separately secured to the head, and into which gles, orthere is employedan intermediatel element which is secured tothe tube for extending it within the nozzle. The atomizers of this construction offer l Vgreat drawbacks due to the difficulties found inthe manufacture and in the mounting of the separate nozzles as well as of the tubes and like internal parts, andalso inthe adjustment of such parts to obtain theproper Spraying. I l

My invention relates to improvements in atomizers with a View of simplifying their construction and assembling and of'facilitating the adjustment of the capacity of the spraying chamber, these improvements essentially consisting in the elimination of the separately secured nozzle and its internal parts, the spraying chamber being now formed by the sprayer head itself.

In the drawings: i

Figure 1 is a broken yView. in vertical secl tage due to the fact that the orifice can be tion of the improvedatomizer.`

Fig. 2 is a horizontal section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1, the head of the bottleneck being omitted.

The head 1 of the atomizer, which may be mounted in any suitable manner upon the neck of the bottle or like vessel`10, comprises an aperture 2 for the intake of air,

with which is connected a flexible tube, 3 leading to the bulb. At the top of the headr is formed the chamber 4 having an orifice y 5 at the side. The immersed tube 6 extends 40 at the top into the chamber 4 whose internal diameter is somewhat larger than that of the tube, so as to form an annular space between these two parts. The ksaid tube is mounted in the head 1 by means of a screwthreaded sleeve 7 having thereonthe flat parts .7a and flanges 8 which bear upon the lower part of the head 1 so as to limit the amount by which the said tube enters thechamber 4, which latter constitutes the spraying chamber. f

The air which enters through the aperture 2 will proceed into the said head kand will exercise a pressure uponthe liquid,

` which thus risesrin the tube 6 in the known nu manner. When the liquid attains the chamvlnthe atomizer'swhch arein current use fflaereitibeoinesmtxediwithi theairfentering,

saidchamber through the annular space, as shown by the arrows.

The sprayed li uid exterior through tlhe'small orifice 5 whichv is substituted for the usual nozzle.

The advantages resulting from this construction of the atomizer are obvious. It comprises no spraying nozzle extending outwardly and secured to the head, nor any fragile or complicated parts serving to form the spraying chamber within the nozzle; the device can thusbe manufactured and assembled ina very simple manner, thus affording a great saving in cost.

Thev capacity of the spraying chamber can be regulated with great facility by adjusting the amount by which-the said tube enters the chamber.

Obviously, vthe construction herein represented is given solely by Way of example, and the shape and size of the parts may be varied without departing from the spirit of the invention. y i

Since the spray discharge orifice can be disposed atany point on the side wall of-v the atomizer chamber 4, I vobtain an advanis projected tothe e situated exactly opposite the person using` the device for spraying perfumes or the (-35v like, while the bulbwill situated on the l right handl side.

- The air rinlet communlcating' withA the flexible tube 3 may. be formed at any partof thehead; "l `g- I claim:

An atomizer including a vessel, al spray head removably secured` thereto and extending above the upper` end thereof, the lower endy ofA the head being formed with an interiorly threadedl opening, an exteriorly threaded member engaging inl said threaded opening, said member having a major diameter corresponding to that of theopening and a minor `diameter substantially less than 100 that of the opening to provide communicat- Ving passages between-the interior of the head and the interior of the vessel, said'head `being interiorly formed to provide an air of said air chamber, said tube-like extension being closed at 'its outer end and pro- 110 .n

vided with an opening through its side wall,

liquid delivery conduit meansy carried by said threaded member and extending below the same into the Vessel and above the same into the head, the upper end of said conduit meansy being open and projecting into the tube-like extension to a point spaced a substantial distance/,below said vopening through" 'the side Wall of the tube-like extension, the

i0 `saidupper end of the conduit means being tyi-third day of une, A. 1).(1926.
